I had these wrong encoding issues very often - and they are horrible. A much better approach would be to check if the characters in the .bib files are compatible with the encoding selected, and highlights the characters (and where they occur in the bib file!). This could be done via a tool which could also be used for other files. This would probably be much easier to implement then individually disabling the references - and also spot errors which you haven't encountered yet.
